It took an 87th minute Priscila Chinchilla winner to puncture the tension around Petershill. City now face a trip Ibrox on Sunday against reigning champions Rangers. They thumped Hearts 6-0 yesterday and now boast the best goal difference out of the three teams; they are one goal better off than Celtic.
A Kirsty Howat hat-trick as well as a double from Brogan Hay and a Megan Bell effort enabled Rangers to get their noses in front of Celtic in terms of goal difference. “It brings our goal difference back up and we are really happy with the performance,” said Howat. “Hearts had taken point off us and we wanted to make sure that didn’t happen. I was happy to score and contribute.
